Astros designated hitter Chris Carter has been benched Saturday in Minnesota.

Carter has received occasional days off, greatly due to his all-or-nothing production at the plate. Of his 35 hits this season, 21 have been for extra bases, but he still owns a .193 batting average and .290 on-base percentage.

He has just three hits in his last 21 at-bats and 65 strikeouts in 181 at-bats on the year.
